Brie Larson is a ‘morbid person’

The Room star admits she is “kind of a morbid person” and whilst she is optimistic, she is incredibly aware of death.

She shared with Radar magazine: “I’m kind of a morbid person. I’m very optimistic, but I also feel like I’m going to die at any moment. I feel very much aware of my mortality. I’m here and then I’m not. It’s the same thing with everything else: the movie comes out and then it’s gone. Everything is changing all the time, and I’m not going to stress out and spend my entire time chasing something that ultimately doesn’t exist.”

Meanwhile, the 26-year-old beauty previously revealed she “appreciates the darkness.”

She explained: “I feel grateful every day for all the times I was told no. The thing I appreciate the most is the darkness I’ve experienced, because I wouldn’t know how to play Ma or Grace [her character in 2013’s Short Term 12] if I hadn’t experienced loss or sadness; I wouldn’t know how to express it.

“It’s such a valuable part of our experience: to not become afraid of the pitfalls, but to instead become curious about them.”
